The moment the Green Corpse Emperor used the Twin Origin Life Card, Ethan became excited as he himself issued a challenge for an official duel with the Green Corpse Emperor.
That's right!
Although the Green Corpse Emperor needed to wait for a year after Ethan's rejection of his first challenge, Ethan had no such restrictions since he had yet to issue his first challenge to the Green Corpse Emperor.
As for the reason why Ethan confidently issued the challenge, it was simple because his foolproof plan was successfully executed as the Green Corpse Emperor was marked by his Special Talent: Gift of Eternal Pursuit.
[Special Talent: Gift of Eternal Pursuit]
[Effects:]
[1) You can track anyone who receives your gifts… limited to only three cultivators at once.]
[2) Those who are marked by you, if they use the gifts you gave them, their battle prowess will be suppressed by 50 percent when they fight against you.]
